Hi, everyone. In the 1960s, as far as I know, a former professional boxer, Pat Loughran, opened a boxing club called St John"s. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, it didn't go the distance. The club was, of course, in Carnlough, and Pat Loughran, although living in Carnlough, was originally from the New Lodge in Belfast. Would anyone have any information about this club, particularly information about its KO. Pat Loughran's story will be included in a boxing book I am writing.

Thank you.

Brian Madden.
